1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines were generated from two patients with RDH12 variants. UCLi014-A is from a patient with heterozygous frameshift mutation c.759del p.(Phe254Leufs*24), associated with autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa. UCLi015-A is from a patient with homozygous missense mutation c.619A > G p.(Asn207Asp), associated with Leber congenital amaurosis. Fibroblasts were derived from skin biopsies and reprogrammed using integration free episomal reprogramming plasmids. The iPSC lines expressed pluripotency markers, exhibited differentiation potential in vitro and displayed normal karyotypes. These cell lines will act as a tool for disease modelling, enabling comparison of disease mechanisms, identification of therapeutic targets and drug screening.
